WRITING FROM THE _________________

This is a collaborative trans-atlantic meandering around our respective research fields, interjected with archival traces of our performances. Alongside us are The GUIDE, and #Sergina. The GUIDE is a survival praxis of how the Black identity performs in anticipation of being trapped in the gaze of being processed as other; a pedagogical deployment of research and critical theory from Black studies, Post-Colonial studies, and Black Feminist studies. #Sergina is a multi-bodied multi-locational drag queen who sings songs about love, lust, and loneliness in the digital age, alone and with others, performing on readymade platforms of Google Hangout, Skype, Zoom, Instagram and so on. What follows is a trans -racial -temporal -geographical edit of our side by side evaluation of where we are - or not.

We are calling this our Mixtape/ Shuffle Play.
